I feel the same way...I have a nephew and he'll constantly do some stupid nonsense..he's only 2 but he's very smart and knows who takesauthority...he'll listen to my girl (his aunt) and knows he'll get in trouble if he does something wrong..however, I can't bring my self to scoldhim because it feels damn weird scolding a child who isn't mine..
I have though when he kept tripping over cords and my pc/laptop equipment..I would just stare him down, then he would give me the sad face..then I would hughim..im such a sucker i love that kid
